Steps

1

Prepare the cheesecloth. Cut cheesecloth to a size adequate to fit over your straining container. It is important to cut several layers of cheesecloth for this to work effectively.

2

Attach the cheesecloth to the filtering container. If you have cut it large enough, it might sit across the filtering container without needing anything else. Otherwise, hold it in place with clips or rubber bands, etc.

3

Use hot syrup. The filtering should take place when the syrup is hot still, which means taking care not to splash yourself with it.

4

Pour the hot syrup from the heating container to the filtering container, through the cheesecloth.

5

Repeat as needed. Depending on how filtered you want the syrup to be, continue until you are happy with its quality. This can be done several times using the same cheesecloth, provided you rinse it out each time and reattach it.
